Canelo vs. Crawford is no longer sure in Las Vegas after a gloomy boxing weekend in Up-to-date York and Saudi Arabia.
Turki Alalshikh confirmed that he is looking for alternative places for the PPV event in the Riyadh season and can change the date of September 12.
This move occurs a terrible weekend at the beginning of May, in which Ryan Garcia vs. Roland Romero and Devin Haney vs. Jose Ramirez introduced record books for the smallest blows thrown into a 12-round fight.
Canelo Alvarez, who fought in Riyadh a day later, added his name to the statistical list in which no one wants to be part. The Mexican superstar pushed Haney’s fight from the fifth to sixth, when his battle with William Scull went to second place.
His four lanes from Terenka Crawford, allegedly erected on the Allegiant Stadium on Friday, September 12, is not deprived of home.
Almost immediately after Turki called Dana White, the promoter of the clash of the Ring magazine, the plans began to change. It is no longer certain where White will organize the fight Canelo vs. Crawford between two pounds for pounds.
The undisputed medium weight master Canelo agreed to defend his crown against Crawford, a former ruler of WBA Super-Welterwagth.
The Ring magazine revealed that three cities remain on the stage because Alalshikh is trying to negotiate the best offer with potential websites.
They called Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Up-to-date York. However, WBN understands that changing the date of Alalshikha in a fight taking place on Saturday instead of Friday is not at the Allegian stadium.
If on September 13 he remains the target date, Canelo vs. Crawford must be transferred to T-Mobile Arena (which is available). On this day, the Allegiant Stadium will be the host of the University of Las Vegas vs. Idaho state football football.
However, moving Canelo from Mexican weekend Independence Day seems to deny the entire plan.
Currently, T-Mobile Arena looks the safest plant, because Canelo packs space at 20,000 places every time she competes. Alalshikh can raise the price and earn millions, as Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao at MGM Grand Garden Arena did, when they exchanged record strokes in 2015.
The stadium’s fight is not a necessity at the moment. Maintaining a fight in Vegas is.

If they fight to Up-to-date York, it can become another Times Square disaster. In addition, Canelo vs. Crawford would probably not sell the MetLife stadium or any other similar place.
The large apple certainly does not have the same pull as Vegas to defend the Canelo title.
It would be possible to be the BMO stadium in Los Angeles, with a much better Mexican group of fans to Up-to-date York. Crawford had previously fought against Israil Madrimov, but the won four validity of Buda attracted 17,000 plus, much less than 90,000 capacities in the allegiant.
For the first time in his boxing career, Alalshikh is in the face of uncertainty. He has a huge decision to make what he thinks is a boxing superfigure.
Exit from Canelo with Las Vegas would be a stern combination and plans to leave on the spot in the shreds of media and fans who want to take part.

Oscar Collazo remained undefeated and won the WBO International flyweight title on Saturday night with a devastating two-round victory over Neider Valdez.
The unified WBA, WBO and Ring Magazine minimumweight champion improved to 15-0 with 12 knockouts after defeating Valdez three times before Mexico’s corner stopped the fight at 2:35 of the second round.
Making his final appearance at 112 pounds, Collazo showed his strength immediately transferred to the upper division, defeating Valdez from the opening bell at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside, California.
The Puerto Rican striker repeatedly found a home for his left hand and left no doubt about the outcome before the fight was called off.
“I felt great at 112 pounds. I love this division. In fact, I want to stay here for a long time,” Collazo said.
Knockdowns
Collazo admitted that he had already called for the fight to be stopped.
“After the third knockdown I was basically saying, ‘Never again, never again’. It was the right decision for his safety. His corner was well checked.

The victory added another belt to Collazo’s collection and enhanced his growing reputation as one of boxing’s most invigorating champions in the lower weight division.
Looking ahead, Collazo has made it clear who he wants next.
“The fight with Ricardo Sandoval definitely interests me. I really want that fight. I’m ready for gigantic fights. I’m ready to make history. That’s the fight I want next.”
Sandoval currently holds the WBA flyweight title, making this one of the most attractive fights available if Collazo continues his climb in weight.
The event was broadcast live on DAZN and was promoted by Golden Boy Promotions in partnership with Miguel Cotto Promotions.
